Your youth is renewed like the eagle´s.



Praise the Lord, my soul; 
all my inmost being, praise his holy name. 
Praise the Lord, my soul, 
and forget not all his benefits— 
who forgives all your sins 
and heals all your diseases, 
who redeems your life from the pit 
and crowns you with love and compassion, 
who satisfies your desires with good things 
so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.                                                                                 Psalm 103: 1-4                                                                                         
The Lord is compassionate and gracious, 
slow to anger, abounding in love. He will not always accuse, 
nor will he harbor his anger forever; 
he does not treat us as our sins deserve 
or repay us according to our iniquities. 
For as high as the heavens are above the earth, 
so great is his love for those who fear him; 
as far as the east is from the west, 
so far has he removed our transgressions from us. As a father has compassion on his children, 
so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him; 
for he knows how we are formed, 
he remembers that we are dust. 
The life of mortals is like grass, 
they flourish like a flower of the field; 
the wind blows over it and it is gone, 
and its place remembers it no more.                               Psalm 103: 8-16
